My doctor told me to stay away from all white soft cheese? i've read on your site under diet that you suggest cream cheese , is it safe to eat? i love cottage cheese, is it the same thing? may i eat that ?

I have read that sweet potatoes are dangerous to eat while pregnant due to the high amounts of vitamin A, 1 potato has double the daily amount. I have read it can cause miscarriage also birth defects! I will be choosing to stay away while pregnant!

You should cut out as much caffeine as possible. You should only have about one or two cups of coffee per day, if at all. I don't know about green tea, but if it's caffeinated, you will want to find out how many mg's of caffeine it contains and bear in mind that you should not exceed 200 mgs of caffeine per day.
